  • grab your product collection for category 123 (wood) and order your collection by position by joining the catalog_category_product table Jun 3, 2015 at 13:17

$collection = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();
$collection->getAttributeToSelect('*');
$collection->setOrder('position', 'ASC');

foreach($collection as $_product)
{
    $_product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($_product->getId()) ; 
    //enter what you do here.

}

So what you are doing here is 1 get the entire product collection. 2 Selecting all the attributes (this is not very resource efficient you should only select the required attribtues). thirdly you set the collection order by the position attribute and order it ascending.
